As mentioned by Nathan, this issue is present because 5.10 does not
include commit ea4ca586b16f ("mptcp: refine MPTCP-level ack scheduling"),
which removed the use of 'incr' in the error path added by this change.
This other commit does not really look suitable for stable, hence this
dedicated patch for 5.10.
Fixes: e93fa44f0714 ("mptcp: fix duplicate data handling")
